Testing - Garlic Scape Quiche

http://fiddleheadcreek.com/cooking-with-garlic-scapes/

1 - I am curious about the maple syrup and am charmed at the fresh tarragon, though I doubt it will be enough. I am making 3 quiches, and will try different quantities in each to see what most pleases.

1 blind-baked pie crust
1 1/2 cups of garlic scapes, cut in small pieces (a few left long for decoration
1 tablespoon of butter
1 tablespoon of maple syrup
1 teaspoon of fresh tarragon
1 cup of grated cheddar
4 eggs
1 cup coffee cream OR ½ cup heavy cream + ½ cup milk
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. 
  2. Sauté garlic scapes in butter until tender. 
  3. (Optional, sauté a few whole scapes and set aside)
  4. Remove from heat and add the maple syrup, tarragon, salt and pepper to taste. 
  5. Layer the mixture in the bottom of the crust and cover with the cheese. 
  6. Beat the eggs, milk and cream and pour over the filling. 
  7. (Optional, half way through the baking, lay a whole sauteed scape on top for decoration.)
  8. Cook for 35 minutes or until brown on top.
  9. To keep the quiche warm, cover it with aluminum foil and bake it in a preheated oven at 200-250F.
